Our first class assignment was to go around campus and find a object that resembled a letter from the alphabet. At first it was difficult because I was not thinking outside the box but after REALLY looking i began to see letters in objects that I would have never guess. I ended up taking a few pictures, but none really caught my attention. Thinking about what I wanted to do I realized I had a great picture of store tower I could use that resembles the letter I.
For this first picture all I did was just add more vividness and color using the brightness, Hue/ Satruation, along with the curves effects. This really did alot for the picture, making it more lively.
For my final collage picture this is what I am working on so far. I am going to try to incorporate a few different pictures of UCSB. In this picture, I have put an aerial view of UCSB in the backgroup with sorke tower on the forefront. I again worked with the curve effect along with the hue/saturatiion effects as well. I like the way in incorporated it into the background but I still think theres more I cabn do to it. I want to make the background clearer so I will have to mess with that.
Although this what I have so far, there is still alot to be dont to finetune these pictures. Photoshop has so many possibilities its hard for anything to be completely done. I am looking forward to seeing how my final drafts turn out!

Wow, the final picture that you're working on looks so awesome. Did you use multiple layers and play with the opacity? I'd be interested to know. Whatever you're doing, keep doing it.
ReplyDeleteIs your theme in general UCSB? If so, maybe you can incorporate some things that you do specifically here (you're on the track team, right?). Also, I think the first image definitely pops. It still looks natural, which I really like, but it also looks like more than just your average photograph. The angle is also amazing and it goes with the whole rule of thirds we have been talking about. Great job so far! I'm excited to see your final project.
